All children like sausages. Health food specialists are probably shaking their heads again, but sometimes sausages are a lifesaver for tired parents, or a help for those whose children don't want to eat.
I don't come into the second group, because my children eat everything I prepare. But sometimes I'm so exhausted that even the thought of supper is beyond my capability. Fortunately, the quality of sausages has got better and the amount of "meat in meat" is surprisingly high. With a bit of luck, we can find in our shop sausages in which the meat content is 93 or even 97%. Let's buy good quality sausages which are resilient, hard and brown, and not soft and pink after being cut up.
I usually buy Sokołów or Pikok brand sausages, and with them I made today's supper. I would like to share with you my recipe for baked sausages in French pastry and cheese. This dish is excellent – I believe my children - the supper disappeared before I could blink. I'm not sure that my daughter knew how it tasted though – the amount of ketchup was bigger than the rest of the dish.
Ingredients:
sausages
1 pack of chilled French pastry
slices of cheese
milk
oregano
Heat the oven up to 200C. Cover a baking sheet with some baking paper.
Cut the sausages into halves. Cut the French pastry into squares of 8 by 8 cm and the slices of cheese into squares 1 cm smaller. Put the pastry squares onto a baking sheet, keeping them separate. Put a square of cheese and a sausage onto each of them. Wrap the two opposing diagonal corners of each pastry square around the sausage and delicately stick them together. Smooth the top of the pastry with the milk and sprinkle with oregano. Bake for 15-17 minutes.
Enjoy jour meal!
